From pool parties to desert hikes, summer is definitely everyone’s favorite time of year. But with the long days and endless sunshine summer brings, it also brings some health threats – to your eyes in particular.

There’s something to be said for aging gracefully, but there’s nothing graceful about not being able to see well – or not recognizing your own eyes when you look in the mirror.

There’s just something about the first week of March; maybe it’s the promise of spring in the air, the upcoming spring and summer vacations that make our day seem a little lighter, or the season of leprechauns and easter bunnies coming our way.

So it’s been a long day. You’re tired, hungry and perhaps the biggest giveaway of all – you’ve got an eye that’s starting to twitch. Aside from being super annoying (how can such a tiny movement cause such irritation?), your twitching eye is probably making you wonder exactly what’s wrong with you.

If you have a child who wears glasses, chances are, you’ve gotten the request (or more accurately, the begging and pleading) for contact lenses.

Got a fear of the eye doctor? Well, don’t be; even if your vision needs eye problems corrected or you have another eye issue altogether, you should know that you’re in pretty good company.

It’s a new year and that means that January has come around again. Around here, we love January, because it means we can talk about a super serious issue that could affect your vision and quality of life.
